Mobile games developer and publisher, Breakpoint, announced a new mobile game featuring the World's Strongest Man - Mariusz Pudzianowski. The game will give players the chance of becoming the strongest man in the world by taking part in an unusual strength competition. Instead of the usual disciplines, gamers will compete in a series of unique strength and endurance tests from all over the world, as well as some never before seen disciplines.

"Mobile games provide entertainment to anyone with a mobile phone," said Mariusz Pudzianowski. "Now everybody will be able to feel like a Strong Man, even while waiting at a bus stop".

While working on the game, Breakpoint's team came up with several other ideas, including a lifestyle application that utilized Mariusz's bodybuilding know-how, as well as an action game in which he would fight crime. These projects are to be undertaken depending on the success of the first game.

"Mariusz Pudzianowski is a great business partner and an easy-going person," said Pawe? Feldman, Breakpoint's Licensing and Publishing Manager. "The 'Pudzian' game will attract many who know Mariusz and his skills. We count on it as much as on other new license-based games: The Witcher, Footbag Freestyle, Yamakasi Masters."

Mariusz Pudzianowski, also known as "Pudzian" and "Dominator", has won the World's Strongest Man competition three times and also became the champion of the Strongman Super Series. Mariusz Pudzianowski prides himself on his extra trim physique, which gives him a competitive edge against his opponents. His involvement in strongmen sports started at the age of just 16, when he benched 160kg in a bench press competition. Currently, "Pudzian" holds seven Strongman world records, including Tire Flip and Farmer's Walk. His motto is "Never give up, always fight to the end". He supports many charity initiatives.

Breakpoint expects to release the game in July 2007.
